Cellular South, a mobile communications company, has announced that it is providing mobile banking services to customers who bank with Regions Bank, a provider of consumer and commercial banking services.
Cellular South said that it now offers the free wireless mobile banking application to customers who bank with Regions and eight other mid-south financial institutions, including BancorpSouth, SunTrust, USAA, Wachovia, Trust One, Coastal Bank and Trust, Vanguard and Bank of Pensacola in the mid-south region of the US.

According to Cellular South, the mobile banking application is available on both cell phones and BlackBerry devices, including the Curve, the Pearl and the World Edition. The service allows individuals who are customers of both Cellular South and participating banks to view account balances and history, transfer funds and pay bills from their mobile handsets through a secure, PIN-protected gateway.

David Rupp, senior executive vice president of consumer services at Regions Bank, said: We’re pleased to work with wireless carriers like Cellular South to bring mobile banking to our customers. Managing bank accounts from a wireless device fits the busy lifestyle that many of us share and it will make banking more convenient for Regions and Cellular South customers.
